Hello Phillip Thomas and Goanetters,
I am taking up this challenge, in my own way for a start; I agree with you
that it's 'simple as that' and 'tough at that'. All I/we would need is a
healthy contribution from goanetters towards the subject profile initiated
by me, into various 'Think Tanks'.
Please do not try to distort and argue over any proposition from me or from
anybody; Just say your piece in a straight forward manner; Netters may add,
correct, analyse and expand any or all subject profiles according to their
knowledge and experience. I am only initiating a Profile and in each
subject; does not mean its necessarily correct, perfect or knowledgeable;
It's up to Goanetters and Goa lovers to add to it, as per their own
knowledge and experience. OK?
Each 'Think Tank' subject profile, I shall call, say:
1) EL. Power. Goa--TT-1
2) Road Transport. Goa--TT-2
3) Traffic Contol, RTO, Licensing. Goa--TT-3
4) Airports and Air Transport Support. Goa--TT4
5) Energy Supplies (other than E. Power) Goa--TT5
6) Water Supply and Sanitation. Goa--TT6
7) Telephones/ Internet Communications. Goa--TT7
8) Administration and Bureaucratic effectiveness. Goa--TT8
And so on, some more subjects can and will be added as we get along.
I am going to send in my first installment on TT1 as soon as I can.
I hope Goanet agrees and publishes 'the efforts on line' to some of the
local newspapers as well and on a regular basis; It will also be good if we
can get all the State Legislature Members as goanetters, as readers and or
contributors. Then may be the Directors of all the various Govt. Departments
affected/involved to come on line.
This way the 'Goanet' will be an open ended Forum, with all the transperancy
required. It will be a major thrust, in the direction of resolving, the many
problems that are prevailing in Goa.
Cheers!

It's as simple as that - and (more likely) as 'tough' as that! How many
goanetters
are there who are "obsessed" about shedding light on Goa's fundamental
problems? Note that defining a problem correctly may be half the battle
won.
